отличное приложение

все круто

Super

Great app.

Leve, gratuito e fácil!

Funciona perfeitamente

Was great, renamed converted to subscription only and that was that

I used this from time to time, now they replaced the app with a link to their paid subscription app, and that one is expensive.

Response from developer

Thank you for your review. Xcasca, our new app, is also FREE. It does NOT require a paid subscription. A paid subscription will unlock premium features such as cloud data sync, but the majority of our PortX users will find the free version of Xcasca identical in functionality.

Super

Очень удобное приложение

Really useful

I like that it’s free, it has all the features I need.
One suggestion: when editing on my iPad via “nano” I can’t use my keyboard for saving etc.

Response from developer

Thank you for your review. We are migrating to our new app, Xcasca which is also free. Can you try downloading it here and let us know if the issue persists? https://apps.apple.com/us/app/xcasca/id6749602189

Womp womp

App was good but they are killing it for a new paid one, womp womp

Response from developer

Thank you for your review. PortX is migrating to Xcasca which is also 100% free for basic use and will meet the requirements for most of our users. Certain advanced features such as cloud syncing will require a paid subscription.

Can’t paste text on editor

This application can easily login on SSH,
But I can’t paste text on editor

Excellent!

Excellent problem solver. Thank you for the product.

End of life - Thank You

Don’t waste your time. This app is end of life. Dev has decided to rebrand and create a paywall of $50/yr for the app with no option for home uses with only a few devices to connect to. I’m writing this to say thank you to the greedy devs for their pricing overreach. You forced me to look at other apps and I actually found one that is much nicer with a reasonable pricing option.

Please remove nag screen

The last version shows every time a nag screen and I am already fed up with it. Please don't show it more than once ... I am about to move away forever.

Great ssh client

It’s a great ssh client.
But need an import/export data function to sync servers via different PortX apps.

Amazing app! Useful!

This app saved me so much time and money! Unlike other apps who charge a monthly fee this app is COMPLETELY free! Works seamlessly. And easy to set up!

Opening apps is very laggy.

Especially after completely quitting an app and then reopening it, it takes more than ten seconds to open, on a Mac M1 Pro.

Response from developer

Thank you for your review. The App Store version runs using x86 emulation. This may result in less than ideal performance on M-series Macs (arm64). You can download the Silicon-specific package from our website to enjoy better performance: https://portx.online/download

misleading

does not support sftp despite the appstore name indicating it does

Great app for SSH without intrusive ads or paywall!

This app works flawlessly for connecting to my various endpoints. It supports password and key authentication, multiple servers, and has an easy to use interface that allows you to organize servers into folders. The most fully featured user-respecting and non-paywalled app on the App Store.

So far, so good

Ive been using this for a few months now, and it really works well. I have some small issues, like with my exiting the remote ssh session and the terminal not closing as if it’s hung, but this is easily overcome by closing with the “x” button. Well-done!

Response from developer

Thank you for your feedback. We are continuing to improve the terminal interface and overall user experience. Your feedback has been passed along to our dev team.

Like it

Could find any way to copy text from terminal window. Please tell my how

Great app!

Is there a way to add up/down keys? To use last function again? If not, please add it if possible, please
